Pet Sitting Thixton

“Jorie has a delightful personality and genuinely cares for your pets. We have two cats that have very distinct personalities. Lexi is social until the end of the week when she just wants mom to come home. Dexter is really timid around people he does not know and for previous Rover caretakers he has only hidden. Jorie was so lovely he felt safe to come out and be photographed. 😻 She did a wonderful job and I highly recommend her!!”

About: I am a pet owner myself. I have a 2 year old puppy, great pyrenees and mount bernese mix, Willow. We adopted her at 8 weeks old and have been happy ever since. I’m currently working part time at a local grocery store. I’m free in the evenings Monday-Wednesdays, available all day Thursdays and Fridays. Available late afternoon Saturdays and Sundays. I’ll follow any instruction that is needed to take care of your pet. I can give baths, play with your pet in the backyard, and I will clean any mess your pet makes. If your animal needs a brush, I don’t mind brushing them. I can give your dog walks around the neighborhood.

“Prompt, awesome communication, great job, will book again!”

“Maddie was a wonderful dog sitter for us! She was able to accept our booking last-minute when our usual sitter wasn't available for a trip. Our dog immediately liked her and I could tell he didn't miss us when we were gone! She was very thoughtful with our 2 cats too even though we only booked her for the dog, and very respectful of our home as well. I have nothing but great things to say about my experience with Madeline- definitely worth booking for your pet!”

“Elizabeth was excellent with our senior dog! Our dog was very comfortable and well taken care of. She checked in with us and let us know how he was doing. Highly recommend her!”

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was born! Small dogs, medium dogs, big dogs, I love them all. no matter the breed I love them. Neighbors, friends, and family have all called and trusted me with their babies. Over the night, weekends, walks, whatever is necessary I'm always ready and willing to love on your babies. I work 8-5:45 Monday through Friday, but on the weekends I'm pretty flexible. Reach out, l'd love to meet you and your pup! I work Monday-Friday 8am-5:45pm. Outside of those hours and on the weekends I am very flexible and able to take care of your pup at your home or mine! Although I live in an apartment and don't have a fenced in yard, I love to go on walks near my apartment and to the dog park at my apartment! I also have access to a property of a few acres with wide open green fields! Anywhere outdoors is my go to and I love fresh air. I have plenty of space in my apartment for your pup to lounge around or play...whatever they like! I will treat and love on them like my own!

“Great! This was our first experience with Rover; also we were visiting from out of town. We made arrangements to meet Heather prior to the drop-in visit. Everything went as scheduled; Heather came to our hotel on-time and did the drop-in visit at the time planned (she took and texted photos of our baby outside and her eating dinner). Heather was very easy to work with and I highly recommend her and if we return to the area will book her again with complete confidence.”

“Megan took care of our two cats and our fish while we were away for two weeks. She stayed in communication with us about anything that was happening at the house and even went out of her way to take care of a malfunctioning alarm at the house. I loved having her here to watch over things and will definitely choose her and her family again in the future!”

About: I've always loved dogs! As a dog-owner myself, I know the stress of leaving a pet at home, both during the workday and when on vacation, but also what it's like to have the peace of mind that comes with a trustworthy pet sitter. I love giving pet parents that security of knowing their baby is happy and safe while they're away. I have cared for dogs ranging from the puppy stage to senior years. I have experience providing medical care to dogs ranging from post-surgical care such as monitoring for adverse reactions to anesthesia, to facilitating recovery from ACL repair surgery by providing heat/ice to the affected leg and following surgeon's orders for increasing walk length on a variety of terrains to help the dog regain muscle strength. Most recently, I have cared for a senior dog who was partially deaf and had arthritis. That experience taught me to intentionally stay in his eyesight, and to tailor the pace and length of walks and playtime to meet his gait and energy level. My full-time work allows me to be available on a variety of weekdays, evenings, and weekends. Depending on the day, I am either very flexible and can come whenever your pup needs me, or am more limited with evening-only availability. So just ask! I only walk dogs in an escape-proof device such as a Martindale or chain ("choke") collar. I will not walk a dog in a flat collar or harness, even if the device is advertised as 'escape proof' or the dog does not have a history of escaping. This is for my peace of mind as well as yours, and for the safety of your fur baby. In addition, when I am walking your dogs, they are my first priority. I am not on my phone so I can pay attention to my surroundings and the dogs in order to maximize safety for both of us. Finally, to make my time with your fur baby as positive as possible, I require a meet and greet with you and your pet before coming to care for them by myself.

About: I have experience with many family, friends, and have made connections with others sitting for vacations or if it’s just a simple walk! I have also been around dogs my whole life with my own and know how to properly take care of all ages. I know leaving your furry friend can be stressful so my goal is to help you leave some stress behind and know your pup is in loving and caring hands! Being with dogs is my happy place so I enjoy all the little things. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I can also snap as many photos as you’d like while we hangout! I am all full time Chick-fil-A manager working mostly afternoons. I am available for care from 8AM-2PM. I can also do drop ins after 10PM. I am open on my off days which is Sunday and Thursday. Feel free to message me beyond that and I will try my best to make it work! I treat every dog like it’s my own! I follow their normal routine of what they’re used to. I will always make sure they have food and water, give them the proper care, give them plenty of attention, playtime, and walks. I also make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved at all times! I feel like I can have a special bond with dogs just from my personal enjoyment and connection with them!

About: We’ve taken care of our own and other’s pets our entire lives — and we know most people want this kind of experience for their pets. Whether at our home or yours, they’ll be just like family to us. I have 5 years experience working and volunteering in animal shelters, making me a great fit for anyone wanting a sitter who knows what they’re doing and is willing to go above and beyond. I am a remote worker, so I’ll be with your pets all day long! Taking care of animals is my passion, so your furry family is my primary focus. Andrew is my husband, and will occasionally help me out! I work with old animals and young, calm animals and ones with their crazy pants on — so any challenge that is thrown, I will be able to handle. Pets are our children, and you can trust me with yours. I am also insured as a pet sitter, so you can have some additional peace of mind.

About: I’ve grown up in a home full of dogs and have been caring for them for as long as I can remember. Today, I have a sweet female Goldendoodle of my own named Murray, who’s a big part of my life. I also have experience with cat sitting for family and friends. I’m that girl who stops to help a lost pup or cat and won’t rest until I’ve reunited them with their owner. Animals have always had a special place in my heart, and I treat every pet like they’re family. My job allows me to work from home so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup! I can be available as needed to care for your pet. I care for pets with the same love and attention I give my own. Whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting them in theirs, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy. I follow any specific routines or instructions you provide—whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, walks, or playtime—because I know how important consistency is for pets. I also make sure to give them plenty of affection and companionship so they feel secure while you’re away.

“Best sitter! On time! Babies loved her! Felt very comfortable being away with her caring for my babies! Will definitely be a repeat customer!! Ty so much Olivia!!”

About: I have been in the pet-sitting scene for 3 years now! Started with friends and family, then branched out from there! I've learned how to care for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and my favorite type of pet: rodents (Guinea Pigs are the Best!). Taken care of older pets that need medications and careful care, as well as young and energetic pets that need some more playtime and enrichment! I believe one of the most important skills to have to be a great pet sitter is proper and clear communication with the owners. I communicate how often an owner would want! I would communicate with videos and pictures of your pet's adventures, or communicate any concerns if any arise. I want to make sure that while you're away, you can rest easy knowing your pet is safe and happy! :) I do work part-time as of right now, typically working 15-25 hours a week. I mostly work morning shifts from 10:30-5:00, but usually leave an hour early. If you need me to stay most of the day, please let me know at least a month in advance; I would happily take off work! There are a few things I would like to know about your furry little friend: 1. How often do they need to go out? 2. How much enrichment do they need? 3. Do they take any medication? 4. Do they have any triggers I should be concerned about? 5. Do they have a good understanding of commands? (It's ok if not :3) 6. How long can they be left alone? Please inform me of anything I need to know. I want to make sure your baby/babies are taken care of! I can't wait to meet some new friends! I'm currently working a part-time job typically working 15-25 hours a week. I usually work morning shifts ranging from 10:30-5 or 11:00-5:00, but sometimes get off an hour early depending on the day. If I need to stay for the majority of the job, please let me know at least a month in advance; I will gladly ask off! I will inform you of my schedule when we talk! :) I ensure I’m properly informed of your pets making sure I know their personality, if they have medication, habits, etc. I make sure they have plenty of enrichment through the day and I love to update my clients of their pets well-being by sending pictures, videos, and more!

“Thanks so much!”

About: I have been dog sitting since I was 16, and because I love animals, I truly enjoy providing loving, reliable, exceptional care for every dog. I work a part time/evening job so I am available to be with your babies for half the day, I am also available after work if needed. By carrying for your pets I will pay attention of when your pet wants to go outside, I will make sure that their bellies are full. I love to make sure that your pets have fun while playing with them and to make sure they feel comfortable in their own home.

“I was so happy to be able to book Donai again. Second time’s a charm! I knew my cats were in great hands, and I always loved seeing the Rover reports and pictures while I was enjoying my trip. Thanks for your flexibility and your clear communication!”

About: I’ve loved animals since I was a kid. My partner Jacob and I have 3 yorkies, a cat, a mini pig, and hedgehogs. We have experience with reptiles and arachnids as well. We love all critters, no matter the species! Our home is quite large, with space to give shy animals some quiet time if need be, but we also have no qualms with sharing our beds or couches if your pets want to snuggle up. Our yard is fully fenced, and our animals are always monitored when outdoors. Rest assured, we will treat your babies like our own! I work from home, and have the luxury of creating my own schedule on a daily basis. As such, I’m able to spend as much time as I need to with your babies. My large backyard is fully fenced. Outdoor time is always monitored personally, even if it’s raining. We have three yorkies in our home, and a mini pig who stays outside (except during the winter). We allow animals on our furniture, if they want to join us, or they can lounge where they’re comfortable. We have enough space to keep animals separated in different rooms if the client requests it.

About: What truly sets me apart is my nine years of comprehensive, hands-on experience caring for my family's pets, consistently since 2016. My reliable background is further proven by my time dog sitting and walking for several friends, demonstrating comfort and expertise with pets outside my own home. I'm proficient in managing both large and small breeds, having cared for a Pitbull and a Yorkie, giving me confidence with all energy and handling needs. My experience also extends to cats. I rescued a cat that I found on the street, which highlights my patience and skill in providing gentle care for nervous or shy animals. I am reliable, versatile, and deeply committed to recognizing and meeting the individual needs of both dogs and cats. Pet care fits easily into my current schedule, ensuring your pets receive focused attention without being rushed. I work part-time as a Paraoptometric Technician and dedicate other free time to volunteering, but I intentionally keep large, consistent blocks open for pet care. My reliable availability includes Tuesday afternoons, Thursday mornings and afternoons, and full availability on weekends. This structure guarantees I can provide reliable, high-quality care, whether your pet needs a mid-day walk, or regular drop-in visits. My main goal is to create a stress-free and loving experience for your pet right in their familiar environment. When I care for your dog or cat, I focus entirely on their comfort and routine. I'm meticulous about following your exact instructions for feeding, medication, and walks, making sure their schedule feels perfectly normal. I also know that security is important, so you can trust me to be mindful of your home while I provide care. I'm skilled at providing gentle companionship—like I do for my own rescue cat—which is especially helpful for nervous or shy pets. You can count on me for excellent care, a tidy pet area, and frequent photo updates so you never have to wonder how happy they are!
